Full disclosure, I’m not a big Drake fan myself, but I wanted to start us off with an artist that everyone knew and who was interesting (or divisive) enough that people would actually have opinions. I doubt he’s going to be that positively received here, but we’ll see.

Also suggest who the next artist we should look at is, I dunno, maybe monthly, in your comment below and let’s see if we can get some conversation happening in this community. Or conversely also tell me if you hate this and want it to die on the vine here and now. Cheers and happy listening, folks

    Yeah, but he doesn’t feel like an album artist to me, at least not for a long time. Bloated bloated albums get a pass from me.

      Yeah I agree with that too. I haven’t listened to a Drake album start-to-finish probably since 2013’s Nothing Was The Same. These days I just encounter Drake songs when they either float to the top as singles or come up on Spotify algorithmic playlists. Hell, even Take Care, which I legitimately like, is way fuller than it needs to be with inconsequential bullshit.
